it changed all my ideas of the manage ment of the business. Yesterday I drew my dividend, and it was ex- plained to me that the dividend would have been larger, only there was kick about conductors, and few were put on, which took so much out o1 my share. My dividend was big enough, but 1 wanted more. l was changed from kicker to a bloated monopolist, by purchasing that stock, and now l could kill q man who talked of put ting the company to any extra ex- pense. Why, I am willing to dis charge the drivers, and let the direc- tors and stockholders drive. have become philosopher, and now, when car is late, instead of swearing, l smile, and say there is bridge open, or something. I can find an excuse for everything, and am happy. You do not know how it annoys me to hear you gentlemen talk as you do about soulless monopoly, when l know so well that the company is philanthropic corporation, whose one object ill life is to make its passengers happy. Do not, 1 beg of you, gentle men, send such petition to the con- pany.- It will hurt the feelings of our president and directors, who are ten- der hearted, truly good, church. going people. If you could see our presi- dent weep, as I have, when there has been some criticism on his road, know you would relent.
